Arpit Agarwal commented on HDFS-8538:
-------------------------------------
Hi Andrew, I'd prefer not to change the default to the current implementation
of AvailableSpaceVolumeChoosingPolicy. Instead we can choose less used volumes
with a higher probability.
Always picking the least used volume will affect overall write throughput.
> Change the default volume choosing policy to
> AvailableSpaceVolumeChoosingPolicy

> For datanodes with different sized disks, they almost always want the
> available space policy. Users with homogenous disks are unaffected.
> Since this code has baked for a while, let's change it to be the default.
